    Who knows. They fucked me, AGAIN. Told me they would ship it out, lied about it and a week later they said I need to pay for the tire before they can ship it and then they will pick up the other tire THEY FUCKED UP ON and when they get it back in their warehouse they will refund me the money

    This truck is a work truck - not a lot of fancy mod's here, but it's getting the job done!
    Hey guys - just added some interior lighting: Here's the short story, but the full story is on my build page:

    Oznium.com for the parts and the LED's themselves are about 1/8" sq.

    Each switch controls it's own side of the cab (passenger and driver)

    I've had these for about a year. Honestly I don't notice a ton of difference. Maybe a little whiter light but not that noticeable.

    I bought a timing belt and water pump the other day and planned on changing it yesterday, so around 2:00 yesterday I went to my friends house and we tore it down.....they were new. So I took em back and got my $138 back. Something else I changed were my hubs, they were so hard to turn that I had to have a pair of pliers, and my friend had an extra set laying around so I took just the face, cleaned, and greased everything and put them back in. They are smooth as butter! I changed my oil and oil filter too. So overall it was a very successful day!

    Better than stock, yes. Better than the CrystalVision Ultra's for half the price, no. Just my opinion.

    QUESTION:

    Besides Junkyards where do you all buy new interior trim parts - I gots some plastics that are chewed up in my truck, and some new parts would make it sweet!!! I've tried dumpster divin, but first, they never have tacoma's and second, if they do, they are gone before I get there or the parts left are worse off than mine...

    I forgot about them - but, unfortunately they do not have what I'm looking for - do they update their inventory regularly?

    yeah - I was hoping to not go there - probably won't make any changes if that is the only way... It would just be nice to have some new interior panels though...

    Forgot to post this awhile back - the prior owner had a CB radio at one point - evidence below... I call it my key hanger mod!

    Ran into a curb, anybody know how to fix a boogered up LCA mount? Is this hole supposed to be slotted or am I going to have to sell a kidney to pay for it?
